Aly’s comments from the What is Life without Books group.

Kari, Congratulations you are the contest winner for October!

Anyone have suggestions for the new year to improve this group?

This has been a crazy year. I have worked from home for over 10 years. I learned this year how more shut in I feel when I can't leave on the weekends too. Anyone else learn anything like this this year? Learn something new about family or friends? How to you keep in touch with everyone? I talk on the phone a lot!

What do you think of Nether Light?

I am thinking of going back to school. I will have to read for pleasure a bit less to get done quicker. But I hope to work in a little reading for me!

The holidays are coming, anyone have special plans this year?

Welcome all and Happy November!

Welcome new members! I hope you enjoyed our group reads this quarter!

What does everyone think of our group reads this time???

Has anyone started one or both??

I have not seen this one. Thanks I will look for it. I was excited about the reboot of the old "witched movie" I loved the old one. But I see they are playing on a streaming platform I don't get. Too bad, I wanted to see how they did with the newer version.

Anyone seen one of these? Orchid mantis, they are so beautiful. I like the ghost mantis as well! To bad they don't live in the USA.

Any free books lately?

Cool we have this in common as well.

I love Netflix too. I can't wait for more new things on it as well. Lately I have been renting from redbox streaming. I would not recommend "Death of Me" I thought it would be good but I didn't not like it. Hard for me to say because I like most everything

James wrote: "lol, rare for me to find such a similar taste in films. apparently the quite place 2 is now 23rd April."

Well, James, I would love to talk movies anytime with you! Do you like horror movies as well? They are one of my favorites! I prefer the ones with less gore but most of them have lots of gore in them now. I like to use my imagination so I don't need all the gore, but just my preference.

James wrote: "Aly, it does appear that we on same wave link. Quite place 2, more Transformers, definitely Jurassic World.
big James Bond fan also, gutted next one has been pushed too next April."

I also like James Bond! I am sad they moved so many movies out. I think they moved The Quiet Place 2 out as well again.

Lynn wrote: "There is a new Saw movie that has already been made starring Chris Rock. It's called Spiral."

I can't wait for it!

As promised, the book will be free on Amazon tomorrow and Saturday for folks to pick up, it’s also in Kindl..."

thank you I will send out an email tomorrow to spread the word. That is awesome!

Is anyone exiting about more Saw movies? I hear they are going to make more but I am not sure. I would not mind more myself.

I would love more transformer movies and I look forward to the next Jurassic World movie! There are so many great movies and TV show out there but I think they need to keep them coming! :)

I love all your suggestions very much. thank you

I love Indiana Jones all of them very much too! I also liked The Old Guard! You are on my same wave link! I miss movies so much! I love so many of them. I am also waiting for The Quiet Place 2!
